Just as the snow was manageable and I planned to go to the local supermarket it started chucking it down again! I hope it will sleet or rain so I can go tomorrow!

I've been buying everything lately, Christmas presents for myself and why not? I bought 2 tight polo neck jumpers (boy they make my boobs look huge!), some thigh high socks, a new slanket as mine fell apart (buy cheap buy twice - bought a decent one this time!), a massage unit to put in my car for those long drives to London (my housemate will test it to make sure it doesn't hurt or get too hot anywhere I can't feel), a learning Welsh book as my housemate and I both speak a little bit of Welsh and this book will refresh our memories, some things I've bought I can't even remember!

Yesterday I went to get my eyelashes done. I pulled up outside the salon and got the wheelchair out. There was a gap between the car and kerb but I managed to get into the chair safely and into the salon and up onto the treatment bed. I now have semi-permanent super long lashes that I will need to get filled every 2-4 weeks depending how quickly they fall out. I was supposed to pick up a friend for dinner but he cancelled :-( never mind, slanket is on and I'm looking at my gorgeous cats all curled up, one on my chair and the other on my bean bag! I have a pair of grey knitted leggings on and a grey Rolling Stones t shirt where the trademark mouth is made of silver metal pieces, like rhinestones but metal.

I was a busy bee yesterday, I had an orthodontist appointment and as I had to be in London for 7pm I stayed in Cardiff and went for a carvery. When I got out of the car I took my make up and handbag in with me and struggled to the kerb where I saw a bloody pay and display machine! It applied to all parking spaces so I had to stick a pound in and wheel back to my car to put the ticket on display. When I finally got into the carvery I ordered my food and put my make up bag down and had assistance with my plate. When I was done I wheeled to the bathroom and did my make up and had a wee. I got back to my car for half 3 so a leisurely drive was anticipated.

It turns out Junction 2 and 3 on the M4 were closed,for no reason. The diversion took me all the way around and I finally arrived at half 7 - this was an hour later that the Sat Nav's estimated time. I arrived in one piece though and even managed to use the non disabled toilet. I was wearing a cream and brown striped skirt with brown tights and a cream vest teamed with a leopard print cardi and my leopard print gloves. I had forced my toes into a pair of brown high heels and on arrival took them off with my tights to see a red area where a bone in my foot had been causing my skin to rub but that's gone now. I took a pair of flat black ballet pumps with me to wear home which was a good idea as my ankles are hard to control in heels!

I'm taking my car for a full valet tomorrow...

It's not getting warmer but the snow has subsided. I kept warm yesterday in a brown patterned skirt with tights and thigh high socks plus a thermal jumper with another jumper over it. I had some some wonderfully warm gloves sent to me by a dear friend - cashmere lined and even they didn't work against the weather today and my fingers were freezing. I've been looking for warm clothes but I don't see many that I like. I follow my own fashion.

I haven't had any problems with the snow as it wasn't as severe as last Winter but it's only November. I'm going out at half 5 to see my friend and go for food.
